How to Change Your IP Address 

I prepared a picture illustrating how to change the IP address on the router. IPs are changed for various reasons - for security reasons or to avoid a ban in an online game. We will not dwell on them now. Editing data in these windows will allow you to change the IP address. If you want to check the operation of this scheme, do all of the above and open the site https://ip-locations.org/ in your browser. The current IP address should change.

So, how to change IP using the example of a D-Link router

Every router has an IP that the manufacturer appoints. However, if there is a need, for example, for two devices to function on the same subnet, their IPs should be different. That is why router users sometimes need to change the Internet protocol of one of two identical devices. How to translate it - says the article. It contains instructions for manually changing such an address using the example of a device from D-Link.

IP can be changed through the menu, which gives access to the settings. Before entering the parameters of the device, you need to connect it to a computer or laptop.
To connect a network device to a PC, use a LAN cable. After connecting, you need to turn on the computer. Then you should open any convenient browser and enter the standard IP address of the device released by D-Link - 192.168.0.1. By the way, how to find the IP address of the router, see here:

The D-Link IP router can also be seen at the bottom of the chassis.

Login
After introducing a standard IP router, you can see the account window on the monitor. To log in, you need:
In the line for the login, enter “admin” - this is the user name specified by the manufacturer.
Enter the password in the next line: the same as the login.

Confirm by clicking “Login”.

Entering D-Link and Reset router settings on the router

If the device is connected as it should, but failed to log in, you can reset all the settings to the factory settings:
Hold “Reset” on the D-Link case for 15 seconds (this is such a small button recessed into the case, which is more convenient to press with a special needle).
The device will reboot, the settings will be reset: you can again enter the classic account information.

Assigning the desired IP address
It was possible to enter the parameters. Now you can change the ip. How to do this is in the table.
In the upper tab, select “SETUP” - “LAN setup”
In “Router setting” (located in the central part of the window), select “Router IP address”.
In the line “Router IP address” Enter the new IP address of the router.

Saving Changes
After changing the IP of the D-Link router, the main thing is to remember to save everything that the user has done. After that, two identical models of the device will be able to function on the same subnet. Each device will have its own network address.

As you can see, changing the IP router is a short and not at all difficult task. By the way, this instruction is suitable for routers issued by other companies. Slight differences can only be found in the location and name of the sections in the settings menu. However, everything can be dealt with on an intuitive level.
